Holy Pricing!

[Colorado Bulldog]

If this is anyone's T4R in Denver, I apologize in advance...

But wow! Yes, there are low miles and Colorado is high prices for them...but anyone think this is just a little bit outside the ballpark?

2002 4Runner Limited *One Owner*

In this market, I might throw 10k at him...but that's about it. Considering invoice was about 32k for this vehicle, at 12 years old I wouldn't pay what was nearly depreciated as he drove if off the lot.

Looks like the driver's seat has a small tear in the leather, and why is the headrest in backwards?

Pass.

 

[sn0wrunner]

Looks like its in great shape. In Colorado he'll have no problem selling that thing for $11-12k. But yeah 18.5 is a bit much...

 

[drdolittlerwc]

I love the description....

Included:

Tachometer
Trip Odometer

And I wonder if anyone knows whether it's a 4-Speed Auto w/OD

Looks like he added a few hundred bucks for every line of detail.... It must be a marketing fee...

I heard somewhere that after 10 years you can change the odometer, 62k is extremely low for a 12 year old vehicle... Just sayin'

Probably has a 12 year old timing belt, water pump, t-stat, hoses etc. Low miles can be deceiving.

 

[amalik]

lol. Dude has listed every component under the sun on the truck, but not a single pic of the engine and is asking probably 3-4x KBB value.

:rockthrow:

And then he woke from that dream....

I"m thinking it is worth about 11 at the top end and that is going high.

As said above I"m sure it needs a host of maintenance done on it.

One-owner, low mileage AND desirable options?

Realistically I am thinking about $13K at the most. Its hard to find 4-Runners in that condition with such low mileage. 405 Motors here in WA request a premium on their pre-owned runners but I don't believe they are as nice as this one.

 

[2fas2c]

maybe the wife told him he had to sell it.

This. Exactly this. Low miles aren't always a great thing. Nice, sure. But you'd be better off with one with a few more miles that had already had all the big maintenance items done.

 

[tee-bone]

maybe the wife told him he had to sell it.

Good point.

"OK honey, I'll list it for sale at a reasonable price for what great shape it is in, but if it doesn't sell, it is not my fault."

This will bite him in the bum when she divorces him for being a spineless wimp and he tries to claim it's only worth $4.5k.

 

[2fas2c]

I'm with PitbullRescuer low miles is not always a plus. My 99 Limited has fairly high mileage 277,000 KMS which is about 135,000 miles. I looked at several 3rd gens with under 100,000kms but nothing was in as nice a shape as this one. I suspect it was owned by a small single person ( 0 wear on any of the seats except driver ) and was driven on the highway 99% of the time.

 

[2fas2c]

if you want one in good shape I would avoid rigs that were used for transporting rug rats.

 

[drdolittlerwc]

maybe the wife told him he had to sell it.

Haha, hence the high price!

"Sorry, honey, it isn't selling...."

 

[rubbertoe]

Gold is an appropriate color for the price this guy wants to start at >lol.GLWS

 

[drtyjerz47]

Good point.
